seven [action]
[Do you know what's exceptionally awkward?
Waking up to discover that you've turned into your sister, whom you love to the point of obsession and whose memory you have placed on an ivory pedestal. And your clothes are suddenly far too tight, for numerous reasons. Most of which you'd rather not think about (two in particular).
This is how Mithos began his day.
There was a certain shock and thrill that came with seeing Martel's face, very much alive, reflected back in the mirror. He almost couldn't tear his eyes away, but knowing that it was actually himself and not his sister helped dampen the enchantment.
Then there was the matter of his clothes...
Mid-morning finds Mithos scurrying across the village to the clothing shop. Very thankfully, he owns a larger cloak for outdoor use, and this adequately covers Martel's (his?) body and the embarrassingly-tight clothing. Not well enough for his concerns, but it will have to do. The other options are hardly being able to breathe for several days, or else...no, not even going to think about that. Passers-by, feel free to notice the troubled, somewhat frazzled look on this poor woman's (?) face.]
